A day in photographs. . .a barter
Well, some of my day anyway.....morning starts with coffee.
Folded Saturday's towels I forgot about. My "linen" closet is a vintage laundry basket.

Harvesting Black Walnuts
Yesterday's sunrise. Just beautiful!
I took some time to pick up two five gallon buckets of our black walnuts. They have pretty much fallen in the last few days here. In fact, they were falling on me as I picked them up. Black walnuts contain more protein than English walnuts and have a stronger flavor.
The hulling and rinsing process is underway, but these will need to dry in the sun. (click on "read more" to see the remainder of the post).
